In order to ensure the security of infrared image in infrared imaging systems and avoid the shortages of traditional image encryption method such as low security and poor real-time performance, a new encryption scheme for infrared image by using Lorenz chaotic system was proposed based on the analysis of bit plane features of infrared image. In this scheme, based on the influence factor statistical characters of bit plane of infrared image, the abscissa, ordinate and bit plane of image's higher four bit planes were scrambled through one operation by using Lorenz chaotic system. This scheme extended image encryption form the pixel level to the bit level. Compared to traditional image encryption method, the scheme is based on the special bit plane statistical character of infrared image, and has fast encryption speed and good performance. It can resist exhaustive attack effectively and has good reliability and scrambling degree. The scheme can be applied to the infrared monitoring system with high security requirements to improve system security and prevent hacker intrusion effectively.
To deal with the energy-efficient routing selection problem of the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), an Energy-Efficient routing algorithm with Location information and Double cluster heads based on Hybrid Energy-Efficient Distributed clustering (HEED-EELD) was proposed. Assuming that all the network nodes had location awareness capabilities, the network was divided into different hierarchies according to the best single-hop distance, so the nodes determined their hierarchies based on their locations. Double cluster heads were selected to share a single cluster head's work and to balance the energy consumption. In the inter-cluster multi-hop routing, the cluster head selected the optimal route based on location, distance and cost function about residual energy. Matlab simulation results show that, compared with Low Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy (LEACH) algorithm, HEED algorithm, HEED-EELD has obvious advantages in terms of network lifetime, energy efficiency and energy balancing.
To solve the problem of receiver buffer blocking and load unbalance of Concurrent Multipath data Transfer using Stream Control Transmission Protocol (CMT-SCTP) in heterogeneous network environments, an improved round-robin data scheduling algorithm was proposed. The network condition of each path was estimated by the proposed algorithm according to the sender queue information and the congestion status of links. Then the proposed data scheduling algorithm distributed the transmission task to each path based on its network condition, curtailed the queuing time of data chunks in sender buffer and reduced the number of out-of-order data chunks in receiver buffer. Simulation results show that the improved round-robin data scheduling algorithm can effectively enhance the transmission efficiency of CMT-SCTP in a heterogeneous wireless network environment and mitigate the receiver buffer blocking problem. It can also adapt to different network conditions.
A static priority scheduling algorithm for periodic priority exchange was proposed to resolve the low-priority task latency problem in real-time multi-task system. In this method, a fixed period of timeslice was defined, and the two independent tasks of different priorities in the multi-task system exchanged their priority levels periodically. Under the precondition that the execution time of the task with higher priority could be guaranteed, the task with lower priority would have more opportunities to perform as soon as possible to shorten its execution delay time. The proposed method can effectively solve the bad real-time performance of low-priority task and improve the whole control capability of real-time multi-task system.
